Withthe testimony of Pearl Keller, a nurse;Dr. Ludwig Ilektocn, ilrs. Logan Swopoand Dr. Frank Hall in tho inquest onthe body of tho late Colonel Swopo, alIndependence, today, came developments in the mystery of tho millionaire's death moro startling than anyfacts herotoforo adducod.Miss Keller's detailed story of tholast moments of Swope's life was replete with startling features of thehappenings in the Swopc household andproduced a sensation.Hn pjirnfnllv hail tho stnrv lieon mmriled that ,nlthough much has been written and rumored about tho case, not until today una nnyono outsiuo um immediate circle interested in the inquiryhgard the narrntive.Miss Keller testified that:Immediately following the death o'Colonel Thomas Ilunton, Dr. K. CHydo asked her to use her influencewith Swope to have him appointed administrator of the Swopo estate.On the morning of Swope's death shegavo him n threo-grain capsule supposedto contain dyspepsia medicine, at thedirection of Dr. Hyde. Twenty minuteslater Swope was in convulsions. Deathsoon followed.Five minutes after Colonel Swope'sdeath, Hydo appeared and, with Attorney John Paxton, took Colonel Swope'swill from his vest pocket.Dr. Hecktocn testified that:Stryclinino in liverOne-sixth of a grain of morphine- wasfound iu one-seventh part ot Swope'sliver. It is believed there might be agrain in the entire organ. Half a grainwould cause death, i races or sirycnnine were found in the stomach.The srychnine might have been injected into the body after Heath. Hudid not believe the taking of medicinecontaining strychnine would leave asmuch as a grain of poison in tho liver.Mrs. Swopo testified that:Dr. Hyde knew Colonel Swope's intention to give a million and a halfto charity and his plan to change hiswill to this effect.He also said that Swopo had toldItviln Iip had nlatincd to uivo ThomasSwojiclhe largest part of the estate.She denied that she entertained an illfeeling against Hyde.Dr. Hull said he was absolutely certain Swope did uot die of cerebral hemorrhage or apoplexy.O. II. Gentry, a druggist of Indcpendenccfi said he prepared the medicine for Swopo and that it contained elixir o iron, quinine and strychnine.The strychnine in n teaspoonful amounted to only one one hundred and eightieth of a grain, he said:Hyde Hears EvidenceHyde was' again-present at tho inquest today and heard every word ofthe testimony. Especially did he follow the testimony of Miss Keller closely, but he gave no sign that the narrative perturbed him in the lcast.In the tense moments, when MissKeller described tho dying actions ofSwope, jurprs and spectators leaned forward and listened eagerly to everyword. Sho told in detail how she gavethe man a capsule and how ho passedinto convulsions. Ho cried:"Oh, my God, I wish I had not takenthat medicine. I wish I was dead."Miss Keller also said that Hyde suggested to her she ought to charge $35instead of $23 ir week for her services.After she had given most of her testimony and the room was quiet. Coroner B. II. Sowart asked her:"Do you know anything that mighthave caused Swope's death other thantho capsulo?'3'"T ln not." she rcnlicd firmlv.The report mado by Dr. ncktoen onjthe liver was supported by affidavits.of Drs. waiter names and victorVaughn. The report of the conditionof the stomach was given verbally byncktoen.Injected After Death?Ilcktoen said tho examination of theorgans of tho body had not been completed. A question that may have a greatbearing upon tho case was asked by ajuryman this afternoon. It was,"Could the body absorb strychnine thathad been injected after death?""Yes," nektoen replied. "If .thestryclinino had beon injocted afterdeath and tho -body had lain a longtime, tho poisou could have found itsway to other parts of the body throughdiu'usion. Strychnine would have tobo in solution for thatwould spreadthrough tho tissues."Ilcktoen said, however, that strychnine would not diffnso through a bodyirozen, as was Swopo 's.Mrs. Swopo told of many eccentricities of Swope. Sho said sho hadthought for twonty-fivo years his deathwas imminont."I'm tho samo as a dead man," ihotestified ho onco said to a relative."I'm just walking around to euvo funeral expenses."WMEN GET RESPITEUNTIL GOING0Owners of Property UnderProsecution ObtainContinuanceELECTION RULESMADE STUDY SICANDIDATESKING GUSTAVE INBETTER CONDITIONI Some FactsTConccrning NewMethod of SelectingCity OfficialsMUST FILE PAPERSWITH CITY CLERKRecovering from Effects ofRecent OperationSTOCKHOLM, Sweden, February 8.Tho following bulletin was issued at0:30 o'clock tonight by physicians in attendance on King Gustavc:"Thoking passed a quiet day and3lept we'll.

City MarshnI Bob Anderson states that they wilPnot be allowedto take up quarters elsewhere in theresidence part of tho city and as the result, it is probable .tli'at the presentwomen will bo forced out of the city,leaving new ones to come in and, byreason of being unknown to tho officers, scatter throughout the city.FLYNN REATS BLJVGKSCRAPPER LASTEVENINGLOS ANGELES, Fcbruary.8.

Thefourth, fifth and sixth were all Flynn 's.Tn the tenth Flynn again forced theblack tolircak ground.At the end the crowd acclaimed thewhite man winner.In th esccond Flynn caught Langfordin the center and wrestled him to thefloor. The black was up instantly, lighting, but in an exchange at close quarters the fireman seemed all the better.He gave Langford no chance to backaway and landed rights and lefts repcatdely to Langford 's body and face.In the third Flynn opened a gash overLangford 's eye and peppered him allthrough.Bot'1 fighters slowed up at the endof the sixth and honors were even unil the ninth when Flynn cut loos again,after receiving a hard right to the neck.Primaries to Be Held April23 and Municipal Election on May 23FACTS CONCERNING 'THE CITY CAMPAIGN4.Every voter must register for4 the primaries. 4To register one must bo ablo to &read any part of the United''?

With thecompletion of the coroner's inquest atKelvin late this afternoon, over the remains of the seven men who met deathin Sunday's disaster, one of the worstaccidents to happen in this part of theterritory in years has gone down in history without anyone being censured forthe affair.While the coroner's jury made acareful investigation of the affair, noliving person could be blamed for theexplosion which cost so many lives, andthe verdicts wero non committal.

The new primary law was adopted at the last session of the legislatureand as it will bo used for tho first timein Arizona this spring, much interest Ismanifest in its workingsTo the unitiatcd. the provisions oftho direct primary law are a trifle complex and it is possible that the provisions regarding the securing of a petition by tho prospective candidates may'causc municipal oflice seekers to burnthe midnight oil for a few nights, figuring out a plan of campaign, but onthe whole, tho new law will probablywork out in a very satisfactory manner.With respect to the candidates, thechief difference in tho new law is thatthey arc nominated directly by the people and not by a nominating committeeand that they must be placed m positionfor nomination by a petition.For oflicers to be elected from thecity at large, such as tho mayor, cityclerk, city marshal and supervisor ofstreets, at least two petitions, signedby not less than five per cent of theparty voters from each of two of thosix wards of the city must be filed andin addition to the ward qualificationsof these petitions, they must containat least five per cent of tho total partyvote cast at the last municipal election.Nominees for aldermen must file similar petitions or nominating papers,signed by at least five per cent of thevoters from their respective wards.These nominating papers must bo filedwith tho city clerk not later thanMarch 14. Between that time and thoholding of the primaries, tho city clerkwill draw up sample ballots for eachpolitical party and submit tho samoto tho different parties. From thesesample ballots, general ballots, to beused at the primaries, will bo made.In addition to these changes in thefiroccodiugs for candidates, ono veryimportant change has been made withregard to voters, by the addition of theeducational qualification to the electionlaw.By this educational qualification, noono can register who cannot write hisWITH MEXICANS m?n n.amc a" wn0 i,.annot rcau" tn n-aiiiiiiiuii in. uic uuiiuu oiuivs, nr uuypart of this document, in a mannershowing that it has not been committedto memory.In addition to this qualification,electors must have been residents ofArizona for ono year prior to the primary or election, as the case may be,and must havo been a resident, of thocounty or precinct for thirty days priorto the casting of a vote .Electors must pass tho educationalqualification test at tho time of registering, and as this test has not been required at any previous election, everyvoter in this city must re-rccister inI order to take part in cithor the comingprimaries or tiiq election which lollows.At tomorrow night's session of thecouncil, a resolution a1Hng the primaries and probably another order fixing the date of tho municipal election,will probably bo adopted, in order that'the machinery or the coming campaignmay be set in motion without delayWASHINGTON, D.

L. Jones & Son.Buker, a brother of Mrs. A. J. Leonard, came to this city from Truckee,California, five years ago. Since thattimo he had been employed at the St.Elmo, until heart failure caused hisdeath. Buker was well known hereand generally liked, s the ttendhce athis funeral-tended to show.to Bennett's defense of tho commissionand renewed the charges that the committee had been extravagant. Ho declared the official reports of expense accounts corroborated his assertions thatthe trip abroad in 1907 was a' "junket," and the government nau haa noadequate returns from the "expenditureby the commission of $057,993."Unless the resolution to create acommission of three to investigate theextravagance of tho commission isadopted, so the countiy may know thatthe extravagance complained of is scandalous, the people .will rise and smitetho party that attempts to shield thecommission," said Macon."Six members of the commission andseven employes made the trip to Europe," he said. 'They drew $90,000on which to make the trip, while iuthis report they account for but $2C,075."The expense accounts arc mado upof steamship and railroad charges, carriage charges, fees, tips, hotel bills, telegraph, wines, whiskey, cognacs, mineral waters, lemonades, glasses, siphons,citrons, cigars, cleaning, pressingclothes, shaves, sliines, hair cuts, shampoos and rubs."Such luxuries as wines, whiskey,cognacs and lemonades were allowed bythe auditor", but disallowed when itcames to shaves, haircuts, shines and cigars." Macon characterized the stopping athigh class hotels and partaking of menus and beverages as "Feasting -at thepublic expense.".WEATHER. BULLETINWASHINGTON, D. C, February 9.-Forecast for Arizona: Fair Wednesdayand Thursday.AMATEUR BURGLARS FOILEDBY ARRIVAL OF PROPRIETORMake Escape Bootless AfterBreaking Into SultanBrothers StoreBut for tho fortunate entrance ofHarry Sultan into the new Sultan Brothers department store, at 8 o'clock Idstnight, that establishment would pro'Dably havo suffered heavily from theravages of burglars.The store was broken into shortly bcforo 8 o'clock by what was apparentlyan amateur burglar. Tho maraudermade his entrance through a window inthe rear of the business office by breaking the glass and unfastening tho sashcatch. Ho had apparently been insidethe building for only a few minuteswhen Mr. Sultan entered tho building.Tho lock on tho south fro'nt doorthrough which Mr. Sultan entered, canbo worked only with difficulty and thenoise he made in entering warned thoburglar of his approach. When Mr,Sultan reached the business office, theintruder had fled, leaving only a shattered window and the mark of a dustyshoe on an opened desk to indicate hisvisit.Nothing in the store or the office hadbeen touched, but had not Mr. Sultanentered the store when ho did, it isprobable that much costly merchandisewould have been carried away.The county oflicers made an investigation within A few minutes after thoburglary was reported, but they woreunablo to secure any clues to the idon'tity of the burglar.Fro mtho naturo of the affair, however, it is believed that tho burglarywas the work of boys. Footprints ona desk which the intruder used as astep in making an entrance indicalothat but ono porson entered tho store.Tho others, if there were others, thanthe ono who entered the store, evidentlystood guard in the rear of the building.Tho window was evidently kicked in,as glajfs was scattered over the entireoffice. Every evidence of tho burglarybears tho stamp of an amateur -and itis possible that the job was'dbrto -byboys who hoped to secure jnerchandisoand later dispose of it.v,.f -on-J -6 ' " v1 '4 'J"
